New shop starting up...give me ideas..
« on: May 27, 2007, 11:39:45 PM »
Hey all...

As of tonight i am the co owner of a new performance shop. We are just getting things set up through our distributor and i would like to hear what everyone would like to see as part of our product line. The shop is mostly geared towards 4 wheeled rides but we are also willing to set up a bike section if there is enough demand for it. So with that said...what are my fellow riders seeking for their rides? Feel free to list anything and i will see what i can do about getting said items as part of the line.

One thing I'd like to see is something other than just the stock airboxes or pods.  There's gotta be something out there using a K&N or Uni filter that would be tres chic for these bikes.  Also, some kind of trick oil tank, stainless and finned, for the 750s.  Large enough to do the job, but small enough it can be mostly hidden.  The idea behind both of these mods is a cheap, quick, easy way to open up the area behind the engine.

Where are you located?

In Canada, you'll want to carry Hippo-Hands.  I think they're made up there.
Dude- your 8 layers are showing!
